RAND OPENING OF THE NEW CASTLE AND CARLISLE RAILWAY. During the past fortnight, active preparations have been making for opening this railway throughout its whole extent, from Newcastle to the Canal Basin at Carlisle, a distance of sixty-one miles. Considerable anxiety to obtain tickets had been manifested, and the pleasure of this day's enjoyment had been the setject of conversation for some time. The 18th of June, the anniversary of the glorious and decisive battle of Waterloo, which crowned the British arms with victory, and restored peace to Europe, was selected as the day on which to celebrate the hi therto successful progress of this important national and commercial undertaking ; and one of the new engines that have been put upon the line is named after the hero of that day, " Wellington." At the corn. mewcement of this great work in the year 1880, many considered it as too difficult and expensive an undertaking to be ever fully carried into effect ; it has, however, in its progress, been marked with great success, and as each succeeding part has become available; it has opened new fields of adventure and speculation to the enterprising mercantile spirits of the population of the counties of Durham, Northumberland, and Cumberland. , ItATITII WHICH THE " TRUE SUN" IS NOW INCORPORATED.

(Extract from a letter, dated New York, May 26, I 538.) I informed you in my last letters of the progress of that den of mischief the Special Council of Canada, composed by Sir John Colborne of the most ultra Tories. After a session of fifteen days, with closed doors, they were prorogued by his Excellency after having passed some severe measures. Among other Bills there is one providing for the attainder of the refugees in this country, who may refuse to go back and be hanged or transported by the merciful authorities in Canada. The I.ro visions of this humane Act are as follows: This railway proceeds on the banks of the Tyne far nearly forty miles, through some of the most beautiful and picturesque scenery, and in view of some of the most interesting objects in the county of Northumber. land. Its progress through Cumberland, for about twenty miles, is equal) , varied and interesting. But the greatest advantage is the CONTENTS: I. SIR JOHN BARROW'S LIFE OF LORD HOWE. 11.

LIFE of WILBERFORCE. John Murray, Albemarle-street. The first meeting of the creditors under the fiat issued against Mr T. Rogers, bilibroker, took place on Tuesday at the Bankruptcy Court, Basinghall-street, for the proof of debts and choice of assignees. The bankruptcy of Mr. Rogers is attributed by himself to the loss of 12,000 sovereigns, which it will be recollected, was alleged to have been stoles from the house of the party some time ago, the particulars of which have been already made public. The bankrupt underwent an examination before the commissioner, who was so dissatisfied with the explanation afforded that he adjourned further proceedings to a subdivi sion Court, in which he was assisted by Mr. Commissioner Holroyd and Mr. Commisioner Fonblanque. Mr. Clarkson, on behalf of the creditors, examined the bankrupt re lative to the transactions of the party before and after the loss of the 12,000 sovereigns was discovered. The bankrupt in reply to a question, carried on business as a rag_ merchant as well as a bill-broker; for two years before the 10th of May last he had contemplated entering into a speculation in Russian produce, and had accumulated for that purpose 12,0001. in sovereigns. The sovereigns were kept in two cash boxes and a deed box. The ledger, which was in the latter, was perfect on the 19th of May. He left a servant girl and his mother in charge of the house and the sovereigns on Sunday long before the robbery. He had not looked, before going to bed in the evening before the robbery was discovered, to see if the money was safe. He was awoke about one o'clock by the police, and he then went to the cupboard to see if the sovereigns were safe. The boxes were gone. He did not go to any police officer on the following morning, nor had he caused any inti mation to bcgiven. He had not gone to business for two days after the robbery, nor bad he made any inquiries of the police officer who called and told him one of the boxes had been found. The 12,000 sovereigns had been collected by bills, which had run out, and other property. PURSUANT to a Decree of the High Court o f Chancery, made in a Cause of DAUBENY v. COGHLAN, the Creditors of ANDREW COGHLAN, a Lieutenant-Colonel in Her Majesty's Service, late of the City of Bath, (who died in the month of March, 1837,) are forthwith to come in and prove their Debts before Sir GIF FIN- WlLson, one of the Masters of the said Court, at his Chambers in Southampton-buildings, Chan cery-lane, London; or in default thereof they will be excluded the benefit of the said Decree. " triumph of science" in eff.cting a direct railway communication acresa the island from its eastern to its western shores, and preparations are now making for carrying out to the fullest extent the benefits to be de rived from this junction. A railway is now in an advanced state from nedlieugh to the ports of Sunderland and South Shields, another from Newcastle to North Shields, which, together with the vast amount of shipping annually trading to this port from ail parts of the world, must render this spirited undertaking increasingly useful. " We (the Tyne Mercury) have heard of but one accident which was in any way serious, and that was the dislocation of one of the hip-joints of a son of Joseph Crawhall, Esq., by sAne concussion of the trains —we have, indeed, understood that by a similar cause, an engine called thy' Newcastle, was severely damaged at Greenhead, but no personal injury occurred, except, we may consider SO, that some gentlemen were thereby, with considerable violence, precipitated into the cinder box." At the first Criminal Court the Attorney-General is to lay bills of indictment for treason against, such refugees, or such persons, as still re main concealed in the province. On the finding of such bills by a Grand Jury, packed for the purpose, the Attorney-General will report the parties not to be found, and the Governor will then issue a prods_ illation, calling as parties not named therein, to come in within three months, and undergo their trial. Should this proclamation not be obeyed, attainder and confiscation will follow. In the debate which took place in your House of Commons on the destruction of the Canadian Constitution, Ministers, if I mistake not, promised an amnesty. The judicial murder of Lount and Mathews was, it seems to me, rather a singplar manner of performing the promise. Sir John's, or rather Lord Glenelg's, Special Council, by passing the above Act, have given due notice that it is the intention of the British Government to go as far as they safely can in the work of vengeance. The refugees here are all waiting Lord Durham's arrival—they all cx. pect an amnesty according to promise —but my fear is that they will be disappointed. Unless the amnesty is proclaimed, conciliation is ab surd. Besides the men whose names have been before the public, there is a multitude of young men who, if there be no amnesty, will settle down here with feelings by no means favourable to British supremacy. Nothing has been done by the Tory Council for education, except to vote about 2,000/. to the Tory schools and colleges in town—not a sous for common schools—and yet the Tory party is continually complaining of the ignorance of the hobnails This day, in one volume, post Bvo., with a Frontispiece, drawn by Rochard, from a Sketch by the Author, a Map, and Six En gravings on Wood by S.

Cajolery, intimidation, and every other sinister means were resorted to, to induce (hem to alter their determination, but without effect. They went to the Ault and voted against their landlord. This they were enabled to do with impunity, solely in consequence of an agreement to stand by each other, should any attempt be made to injure one or snore of them for acting independently. It has occurred to me that what was doe by a few farmers In a country parish, may be accomplished by the united efforts of the Intel. ligent of all ranks in any part of the country—that, if twenty tenants were able to withstand the threats and importunities of a zealous land. lord, Associations not confined to the class liable to be influenced should be sufficient to put down every species of intimidation. But such Asso ciations, to be effectual, must be general—to be general, they must be popular—to be popular, they must be joined by men of rank and lofts_ sacs, and conducted with spirit and ent-rgy.

Debts to the amount of 4,7&01. were proved during the proceedings: One proof was for 2,950/. mule by the bankrupt's sister-in-law. Mr. Richard Barry was appointed assignee to the estate. There is one strong feeling here which will befriend Canada in the day of trouble more than anything else. I mean excessive jealousy of English power so close to the Union. The feeling which remained after the American revolution is not yet eradicated. The Americans dis. like England more than I had any conception of; and I believe that nothing would be more popular in this section of the union, and through. out the south-west, west, and north—(every where except in Nall_ street, New York)—than a war with Great Britain. Could Van Buren declare such a war on the eve of the expiration of his first four years, the general opinion seems to be that he would by that act alone secure his re-election, which is now doubtful.

MIN'ERAL SUCCEDANETTM FOR FILLING DECAYED TEETH, LOOSE TEETH FASTENED, AND LOSS OF TEETH SUPPLIED. Monsieur MALLAN, and Son, Surgeon Dentists, 32, GREAT RUSSELL-STREET, BLOOMSBURY, and 16, PRI ACES-STREE'Ii HANOVER-SQUARE, continue to restore DECAYED TEETH with their MINERAL SUCCEDANEUM, (of which they are the Sole INVENTORS and POSSESSORS) without pain, heat, o r ressuie, and FASTEN LOOSE POSSESSORS)), whether arisin g from age, neglect, di sease s t th e G ums , th e use of Calom e l , or any other cause. They h ave a l so di scovere d a NEW COMP OSI TION for ARTIFICIAL TEETH. A peculiar advantage atte n di n2 Teeth made from this SUBSTANCE is, that they are totally i mper vious to acids. ARTIFICIAL TEETH have hitherto been found ob jectionable by INVALIDS taking MEDICINES which have a tendency to DISCOLOUR them, and by persons of bilious habits. Messrs. M. have been successful in obviating these objections by their NEW DISCO VERY, and they can fix the above without extracting the STUMPS, or causing any incumbrance, and even en GUM.; of the most tender nature, protecting the adjoining Teeth, however loose. No WI IiES or LIGA TUBES are used, and they MATCH the 0 ttIGI NA L TEETH in point of Shape and Colour. GUARANTEED for MASTICATION and A It- TICU I. ATION.

The question of drawback on refined Sngar not having been yet set tled, the British Plantation Sugar market is, as far as the refiners are concerned very inactive. The Stock is 21,161 hhds, and tierces. We have public sales of 'Alattritius Sugar and Siam, and some of Coffee, B. P. Ceylon, and Mocha. The Sugar market is without animation and prices much as before where altered easier. Coffee is not lively, but in prices we quote nothing fresh of any consequence. Tea is flat, Rice is firm, and so are Spices, but not securing much business. Th e imports are not heavy. For to-morrow there is but little business advertised.

There was a tolerable demand for Wheat at this morning's market, and most qualities were the turn dearer, one or two parcels of very fine Irish red were sold for 2d. snore than our last quotations, but this ad vance must not be considered general. Country buyers took a fair quantity of Oats at late rates, Oattneal, on the contrary, was dull, but not lower. Flour, however, moved off freely, and oh!ained Is. per rack higher than the currency of Friday last. Yesterday afternoon, a lad, about 1G years of age, was observed moving up the south side of the river, opposite the green. His pace was quick and hurried. 'When he arrived at the bend of the river below the spring-boards, he stopt suddenly short, and immediately began to undress. Having taken off his clothes, as if intending to bathe, he spread out his handkerchief on the grass, sought about for a minute or two till he found a large stone, which he placed on the handkerchief, and putting his clothes above the stone, he bundled all together, :tying the handkerchief n ith great care. He then took up the bundle he had thus formed, threw it as far he could into the river, and bfore those who witnessed this strange pro ceeding could express their astonishment to each other, he threw him self at one bound into the pool, and was not again seen. We have heard that, being unhappily situated in his father's house, the unfor. tunate man had long contemplated flying from the embarrassments which beset him.—Glasgow Chronicle. CRIME IN E DI NBURGII.—We some time ago alluded to the numerous eases that had come before the High Court of Justiciary, of persons being enticed into infamous houses, and there vio lently assaulted, and robbed of their property. For this offence a num ber of females were sentenced to transportation at the time; and it is probable that the example made of these offenders has had some weight in inducing their old associates at least to change their mode of com mitting depredations. Wa have been informed that on Thursday night last a young man WPS unfortunately persuaded to enter these abodes, where, after drinking a small quantity of porter, he was sud denly deprived of consciousness, and in that state turned out of the house. He was taken into the house of another famaly, and Dr. Black of the police.office was sent for, who applied the stomach-pump, and succeeded in discharging a considerable quantity of laudanum from his stomach, and he gradually recovered. There can be no doubt that the liquor he drank had been drugged by his companions, in the hope of rifling his pockets without resistance. We have heard that this is net a singular case.—Courant. NEW Pooit LAw.—On Monday evening the " Sal ford Select" met and passed several very strong resolutions involving the resistance of the law. Mr. R. B. B. Cobbett and others declaimed in a tone which their friends even, we suppose, would not describe as too tame and dispassionate. In pursuing the excavation in High -street, Lincoln, for the purpose of laying a tunnel from the Butchery to the river, the workmen bared a portion of the old Roman road. It is nearly a yard below the present surface of the street, and great difficulty was expe rienced in breaking through it. It seems to be a cornpoition of lime, ashes, and stone, and is congealed into one solid mass, about a foot in thickness, and as hard as iron. Some fields of clover grass, in the immediate vici nity of Perth, have, within these few days, been sold at from 201. to 241. per acre.—Greenock. Advertiser. Three ewes of the Leicester breed, on the property of Lord Douglas, in Lesmahagow, have, in the course of six years, pro duced the astonishing number of 48 lambs, viz.-1n the year 1833, when one year old, they had four lambs ; in 1834, eight; in 1835, nine; in 1836, ten ;in 1837, eight ; and this present season, nine lambs. Two of the ewes now belong to Mr. William Finlay, in Hill-end, Lesmahagow— Dumfries Courier. AN AMERICAN STEAMER CROSSING THE AT LANTIC.—The Richard Anderson, Lucas, which left Charleston on the 27th ult. and arrived at Liverpool yesterday, reports that on the Bth instant, in lat. 46, long. 30, she passed the City of Kingston steamer, from Baltimore, for London, under canvas.—[The steamers which start from the United States do not seem to make very flourish ing passages, when they let sailing vessels pass them on the way. It is something like the old story of the Stockport stages, which pedestrian travellers would not patronize, because they were in a hurry.]—Man chester Guardian.

A roving party of g ypsies had encamped on the top of the tremendous cliff which overhangs the romantic village of St. Lawrence, when one of their children approached too near the edge, and was precipitated to the bottom, a distance of between one and two hundred feet. The sexton of the parish, who saw it fall, hastened to the spot, expe cting to find it dashed t o a t oms. Hi s surpr i se may b e i mag ined when he found it unhurt, save and except a few scratches—a strong thorn hedge having received the descending angel in its visit to the regions below. —Hampshire Independent.

M an y of the parishes in the City—St. Bartho lomew, St. Mary's, Allh allows, St. Peter, St . B otolph, and others—have open ed a subscription to enable them to entertain their poor in the work houses with r oast beef and p lum p uddin g on the da y of the Co ronation, and to give an additional allowance to their outdoor pensioners. Alder man Copeland has ordered all the out-door pensioners in his ward to have a pair of shoes at his expense. The Goldsmiths', Vintners, Fish. mongers, and the Ilaberdashers' Companies, give one guinea to each in mate of their ahnshouses. The various temperature that has prevailed until within the last few days, has caused much fatality in Lincoln and the neighbourhood. There are a great many aged people in bad health, and some highly respectable individuals in the city are in a very precarious state, producing great anxiety to their friends and neighbours.—Lin cola Gazette. On Tuesday the anniversary meeting of the council and pupils of the Royal Naval School, Camberwell, was held, for the pur. pose of distributing prizes to the most distinguished students in litera ture, mathematics, and the fine arts, and to hear certain statements re. specting the future management of the school. HAMPTON RACES.—The noblemen and gentle men composing the Four.in-Hand Driving Club (which consists of SO members) have handsomely subscribed to defray the expenies of the race course. There has, within the last few days, arrived in this splendid o se f r :N i r c e e lli o n f gt: celain, a present from the King of csSeoasux:oltn:;:foatthhe Countess of -- (one of the most distinguished of the ladies patronesses of Almack's).'

At the moment of the report it was stated that the inhabitants of th e adjacent houses were thrown into such conster nation that they were seen rushing in all directions into the centre of the market. The confusion having in some degree subsided a vast con course of people surrounded the premises, when it was aseettained that the proprietor, Mr. George Cuttris?, was seriously injured. A body of Pace having arrived and kept the mob at a distance, and in rot mation having been conveyed to the engine station in Chandos-street, several of the London fire brigade were immediately on the spot, but their services were not required, as no fire was the result of the explosion. F rom i n formation collected on the spot it was ascertained that Mr. Cuttriss, being in t h e habit of attend ing to the b us i ness of hi s w i ne cellars in person, had for some pur pose entered th em w ith a t ai n t s, when, in consequence, it is sup. posed of an escape of gas, an i gn iti o n took place. Mr. Cuttrits was dis covered lying on the ground in a state of i nsensibilit y; he was con veyed to I s i s b e d c h am b er, an d M r . Bernal], surgeon of King-street, was immediately sent for, when it was discovered that the unfortunate gen tleman was severely burnt about the faceand neck. It is understood that the explosion made sad havoc among the wine, of which the cellars were stored wills a very choice collection. 'Much reluctunce was shown by the waiter at the door to give any information when a cow tcous appli cation was made ; but it is stated that a servant has also been severely injured in the hand. There are some symptoms of a split among the Tories of Lower Canada, if lam to judge by the papers received here. A meeting has been held at Quebec to address Lord Durham. At this meeting a Mr. Forsyth, a trader of Quebec, brought forward a resolution couched in general terms, congratulating his Lordship on his arrival, and expressing a hope that he would succeed in conciliating, and so forth. This, how_ ever, was not explicit enough for the ultras, and a resolution was pro posed, and supported by some persons connected with the house of Gillespie, Moffatt, and Co., calling on his Lordship to redress the griev_ ances complained of. Now, Lord Durham has declared that he would know no party—British, Irish, French, or Canadian ; so that the resolu tion of these ultras is in the teeth of Lord Durham's declaration. Dr. Fisher, the editor of the official Gazette, the ci-devant rabid Tory, saw this, and opposed the amendment—and what do you think ? He declared without blushing, that the struggle was not one of national origin, after having been for fifteen years contending that it was ! The other Tories met him openly, and contended that the struggle was between " races," and pointed to a declaratio❑ to that effect, which he had subscribed; whereupon his amendment, and the original motion by Forsyth, were voted down by a large majority. A little sign of " lip" conciliation occurred on the arrival of the 71st Regiment. Instead of marching into town to the tune of the British Grenadiers, or the downfall of Paris, or some such offensive air, they struck up " A la claire fontaine," " Derriere chez mon pore," and Auld lang Sync." Now these are mere straws, but they evince a de sire not to offend, and arc probably the harbingers of a continuation of that system of pure humbug called " Conciliation," which Lord Gos_ ford was sent into Canada to prosecute, but in which he failed in conse quence of Head's Leone. But against these " straws" there are other " straws," which sicken me as I reflect on them. . , One of the grossest insults which a despot can offer to a free (a once free) people, has just been perpetrated at Quebec. The Hall of the As sembly, where stood the altar and all the insignia of constitutional liberty, has been dismantled and converted into a salle a manger for the coming Dictator. The successors of the same party which converted the Jesuits' College into a barrack have done this black decd. The portraits of Mr. Speaker Papineau, of Mr. Viger, and of the venerable Bourdages, are thrown as lumber into a garret. What is to be done with our valuable library I know not; perhaps it will be converted into a billiard•room. My heart is sick when I think of the grievous insults we have to bear. In Upper Canada, Col. Arthur is hated—they look upon him as a mur derer. The matter there is not settled. You must judge by their " loyal " addresses—even the "loyal" planters are disaffected. I have seen letters from some of them, showing that their opinions do not take their colour from their uniform. Upper Canada, loyal as it seems, will require six regiments at least. Now that the troops have nothing to do, they are deserting. The Montreal Transcript, edited by a half-pay officer, admits while he laments this. An entire company deserted, a short time since, to Rochester. Dr. Nelson has been indicted for a breach of the Neutrality Laws of the United States, but the Grand Jury would not find a bill. Thus, you see the Americans have not much sympathy with the British. • PARLIAMENTARY DIVISION. MUNICIPAL CORPO, BILL,—(b iATIONS (IRELAND) Committee.) JUNE 11. 1) OFF. Hill, Lord A. M.

We hear that one grower alone, Mr. Kingdon, of Thorverton, near Exeter, states that he will lose 3001. by tip, blight this year. Great advance has been made in the cultivation of cider throughout Devon• shire, and large quantities have been of late exported from that county to Turkey. Mr. Kingdon, the gentleman alluded to above, has made the adaptation of specific fruits to soil and aspect the study of many years ; and a Devonshire friend assures us that his cider might fre. quently be mistaken for champaigne. COURT OF CHANCERY.—In the case of Saunders v. Smith, which was left unfinished yesterday when we went to press, the Lord Chancellor postponed the further argument till Friday. On Monday week, Elizabeth Lord, a girl about ten years of age, employed in the factory of Mr. Hilton, at 'Harpurhey, was seen by the overlooker with her head against a shall, and as if she were being strangled. He immediately stopped the machinery, and went up to her, when he found that the shaft had caught a handkerchief which she wore round her neck. When liberated, the poor girl ejaculated, "Oh my neck!" and expired almost immediately. The machinery was not boxed off at the time, but orders have been since given that it be boxed off immediately.—Manchester Guardian. A GIIOST.—We have been very much amused , (says a highly respectable Correspondent), within the last few days, by a story which is in circulation in the lower part of our city, of one of those nocturnal visitors (the spirit of a murdered person, ef covse), having ap peared to the wife Gf a respectable citizen, taking her into the vault of the house, and pointing out where the remains of the murdered person would be found; and of the husband and landlady having, on the fol lowing day, caused the earth to be dug to the depth of six feet or there abouts, wherenot even a mutton bone was found to confirm the state. ment of the affrighted lady! Need we be surprised at the conduct of Courtenay Thorn's followers when we hear of occurrences like the above happening in the very heart of our refined city ?—Bath Herald. On Friday last, a public dinner was given by the Liberal electors of South Essex, at the Saracen's Head Inn, Chelmsford, to C. E. Br:milli, Esq.,' for the purpose of present ing a piece of plate to that gentleman, as a testimony of their esteem for the manner in which he came forward to support their c :use at the late election. The piece of pate to be presented to Mr. Brantill was placed on a crimson stand in front of the chair. It is a splendid epergne, but would firm also a candelabrum, weighing 145 ounces, the cost of it being 1 u 11. The foliage is composed of convolvuluses, and roses and rose-leaves, and the other parts are richly chased. On one side are engraven the arms of Mr. Branfill, and on the other the follow. ing inscription :—" Presented, June 15th, 1535, by the Liberal Elec. tors of South Essex, to Champion Edward Branfill, who as a Candidate in three Conteted Erections in three successive years fought their bat. Iles right onward—in Liberty's defence." lll.—These rules and regulations to be fixed and determinate; cal culated, en the one hand, to advance to the greatest possible extent the objects in view, and, on the other, to prevent the influence of the Insti. tution from being directed to a bad purpose.
